      @Graeme:

      Another new Rolex, this time the Air King.

      What people are missing, including Hodinkee is that this has a soft iron inner case. That's right, it's antimagnetic, and that makes it a lot more interesting.

      I've always had a soft spot for the Air King and this model is no exception. Is this the first model with a Faraday cage? I am loving all the attention that sane sized watches are getting in 2016!

        Faraday cage is in any anti-magnetic model like the Milgauss models.

        I am not strange. I'm just not normal!

          Sorry, I meant the first Air King model.

            I think that it's the first antimagnetic Air King. It actually looks as though they've put an alternative dial on the Milgauss, rather than develop a whole new model, as it's in a 40 mm case.

            @Anesthetist did you see Hodinkee's hands one with the Black Bay 36?

              Going to check that out! I didnt see the full specs on the AirKing. They pushed it to a 40mm case? Kinda ruins it for me tbh.

                Trends from Baselworld by CNN.

                • Smaller watches.

                • Steel cases.

                • Simpler movements.

                I can get with all of the above.

                Speaking of smaller, steel and simpler, Monochrome did another review of the Black Bay 36. Overall it's been very positively received - I think it'll be a hit.

                                    If it'd of gone, I can't imagine the amount of 'oh shit' and 'in shit' you would be in.

                                      Anyone see this? The Engineered Garments x Beams Boy x Timex camper looks a little funky but I think it's cool. Definitely not something that typically pops up in this thread!
